    Thanks - I've got quite a bit to lose though and I'm still in the early stages of the diet. I suspect that tomorrow's weigh in will be significantly less. Particularly as I had quite an alcohol fuelled evening on Saturday :o

    Well Im not sure if he meant it when he said he wanted us to have a baby - but hes said it (twice now - once sober and once not!) and I am a good 3 to 4 stone overweight still (started at 18st10 back in March, now 16st 3/4ish) and it would be good to have somewhere I can not get lost with things that get added !! (last slimming thread i joined got emalgamated into the other one, and it all kinda got lost!)

    so please can I join you?? even if the baby thing doesnt happen (amongst other things, I think we need to be a bit more settled before we even THINK about having a baby!!!) it isnt going to hurt for me to get smaller !!!

    Hello,

    Can I join please? Some of you might know me from the TTC thread. This week I've had my second mc and as I made it too 13 weeks this time I have out on a far bit of weight :o I'm not sure how much but I know that between my wedding at the end of march and my 12 week check up two weeks ago I had put on a stone!:eek:

    I want to lose some weight ready for when we start trying again. I want to lose about 6lbs because I don't want to be quite as small as I was for the wedding.

    I think I will try SW again as I did well on this before my wedding.

  • trudij I've added you to the front page - I hope you don't mind, but I've listed your target weight loss as your loss to date plus three stone - that way we can acknowledge your achievement so far on the OP. Very well done by the way!

    emsbet I'd seen your news on the TTC thread, but as I don't post on there didn't want to unlurk to comment. Take care of yourselves (both of you).

    lily_the_legend I've updated your total.

    My weigh in is tonight and I'll be very surprised if I've lost anything this week. Although I said that last week too!

    Well done COMP :T

    I am drawing a line under the last week :o. I wasn't awful awful but just ate a bit too much of everything. Does anyone else get insanely hungry in the run up to their AF?

    I am starting to suspect that I am going to have less and less time to obsess over food however - currently studying about 3 hours a night after getting in from a 8.5 hour day. My lovely hubby has stepped up and has gone through all my recipe books and foodie magazines and selected all the healthy recipes and has been cooking for us all week.

    Hopefully this time next week I'll be posting a loss.....
